Young Money rapper Nicki Minaj has reportedly reached a new career milestone by passing music icon Madonna on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.
According to reports, Nicki’s recent collaborations with music divas Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Ariana Grande have created an edge.
According to the publication, the rapper’s two new singles, “Feeling Myself,” featuring Beyonce and “Get on Your Knees” with Ariana Grande, have debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at #43 and #88 respectively, which gives Nicki 58 career Hot 100 hits. That means that among female artists who’ve charted, she’s surpassed Madonna, with whom she’s recently collaborated with on “B***h I’m Madonna,” as well as Dionne Warwick — who have 56 Hot 100 entries a piece.

Minaj recently gave props to music stars like Beyoncé but also dished on her own talent in an interview.
“I think about all the female icons that we cherished and loved, and they never had children. Like Janet – I personally love what Beyoncé has been able to do. I want to focus on the child,” Nicki said. “I am the greatest female rapper, and it’s humbling because the people make you that. I wanna let the hip-hop culture know I take this serious.” (CRWN)
